Nu-Breed - Columbia House Nu-Breed Podcast

    • Music Commentary

If you're of a certain vintage, you remember getting these catalogs or seeing these ads in magazines....TWELVE TAPES FOR A DOLLAR! TEN CDS FOR TWO DOLLARS!  For a brief moment in time, music clubs were all the rage...but how did these companies make money?  Especially in light of most people knowing at least two others who signed up but never paid!  This week we take a deep-dive into Columbia House, BMG, and other music clubs to examine how they worked, why they worked, and, most embarassingly, what music did WE buy with them...cheers!
